At Stein Sperling, we place our clients at the forefront of everything we do. Our Human Resources Advisory services provide comprehensive support to business owners, managers, executives, and human resource professionals. We develop and maintain effective legal and regulatory compliance strategies, ensuring clear communication so you always understand your legal situation and the steps ahead. Our goal is to help you foster positive employer-employee relationships while minimizing the risk of disputes.

Our employment law experts support businesses of all sizes throughout every stage of their lifecycle. We assist in determining proper employee classifications and creating comprehensive job descriptions that serve as a guide throughout the entire hiring process, from attracting candidates to making informed hiring decisions. As your business grows or maintains its workforce, we ensure your policies and practices comply with federal, state, and local laws, including the ADA, FMLA, FLSA, ERISA, ADEA, OSHA, and Title VII. We help you navigate the complexities of wage and hour laws, which vary by state, jurisdiction, industry, and job duties, to help avoid costly violations and potential exposure to treble damages and attorneys’ fees.

Employment laws are constantly evolving, and we stay informed on the latest updates to help you adjust your policies and practices accordingly. We assist in developing robust plans for hiring, compensation, supervision, discipline, and termination of employees, ensuring they are both enforceable and flexible. Our attorneys conduct employment audits to identify areas of non-compliance and highlight opportunities for improvement, especially during acquisitions or mergers. When necessary, we provide counsel on performance reviews, employee discipline, and implementing workforce reductions in compliance with the WARN Act at both the federal and state level.
